A veterans (VA) disability lawyer serving Forth Worth, Texas with Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD can be with you throughout this challenging and lengthy process.

What VA Requires for a Grant of Disability Benefits

VA disability compensation benefits are for veterans with a service-connected injury or illness. You do not necessarily have to be diagnosed with a medical condition while you were on active duty, but you must demonstrate a link between your service and your current diagnosis.

Medical conditions that may be considered for VA disability benefits include:

  • Paralysis
  • Hearing loss
  • Cancers caused by environmental toxins
  • Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Depression and anxiety
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)

Approval of benefits typically requires three elements:

  • A current diagnosis by an appropriate healthcare provider.
  • An event, injury, or illness related to your active military service or military occupational specialty.
  • A medical link between your in-service event, injury, or illness, and your current diagnosis.

Successfully filing a VA appeal can be complicated and time-consuming. A veterans’ advocate or lawyer with Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD can answer your questions and keep you informed throughout this process. To get started, call (844) 549-4500.

How a Veteran Disability Lawyer Serving Fort Worth May Help

A veterans’ disability attorney will collect evidence to prove a link between your diagnosed health condition and your period of service.

While every veteran’s case is unique, some of the development the legal team at Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD may do for your appeal include:

  • Analyze your military and civilian medical records.
  • Correspond with your medical provider (with your permission) about your current diagnosis and how it relates to your military service.
  • Secure testimony and documentation from subject matter experts like disability and medical professionals.
  • Obtain supporting evidence from fellow service members who may have seen the event that resulted in your injury or illness.

It is your legal right to have an attorney represent you at all levels of the VA appeals process. You pay attorney fees only if your veteran (VA) disability lawyer serving Forth Worth, Texas successfully resolves your case. For a free consultation, call Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick LTD: (844) 549-4500.

VA Disability Benefits Are Unique

Unlike other compensation programs, VA disability benefits are not based on financial need. You may still work and be eligible for benefits. VA determines your amount of compensation based upon your combined disability rating.

VA rates disability benefits on a scale from 0 to 100%. Higher combined ratings result in higher monthly compensation. For example, a veteran with a combined disability rating of 100% can receive $3,106.04, as of December 31, 2018.
